If you’re planning to build a room addition or an outdoor home improvement project be sure to make a phone call first. The township Zoning Inspector can help you meet zoning code requirements, and avoid fines and other problems. The following are projects that require a zoning permit:

  • Room addition
  • Garage
  • Deck
  • Swimming pool (in-ground or above ground)
  • Shed/ Farm Building
  • Any accessory structure
  • Fence

Before you build or remodel any structure on your property, be sure to contact Mike Todd Zoning Inspector
